Internet Fax Transmission Overview
You can send faxes over the Internet. When you send faxes to Internet Fax destinations, the machine converts scanned images to TIFF-F format files and send them as attachments to e-mail.
The level of security for Internet communications is low. It is recommended that you use the telephone network for confidential communications.
Internet Fax delivery might be delayed due to network congestion. Use a public telephone line if the fax needs to be delivered in a timely manner.
The Internet Fax function supported by this machine is compliant with ITU-T Recommendation T.37 (Simple Mode).
To use the Internet Fax function, network settings must be configured properly. For details about network settings, see Connecting the Computer and Installing the Software (Network Connection)
.Internet Fax transmission may take some time before it starts. The machine needs a certain amount of time to convert data in memory prior to transmission.
Depending on e-mail environment conditions, you may not be able to fax large images.
The “Photo” resolution is not available for Internet Faxes. Faxes will be sent using “Detail” resolution if “Photo” resolution has been specified.
If the faxes are received on a computer, a viewer application needs to be installed in order to view the documents.
